Piano Sonata

Made with this pattern.

Project Description

What are you most proud of?
There are some small pieces in this pattern. I had to keep them small so the piano wouldnt look too boxy. I also minimized the amount of lining up I had to do when I sew sections together. I am happy with the final block.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?
For the best result, take some time while making this block.

Your piano is amazing!,, Encore! Love the fabric variation that makes the body so easy to read.. You did a beautiful job!

soma1773 answered:

I think using all solids was very helpful, I was able to pick out shades that are very close to each other. Thank you so much :)

patz in suffolk asked:

Absolutely astonishing! I love the way you've used blacks and greys to give perspective and shape. I was almost speechless when I first saw it and couldn't believe it was quilted!

soma1773 answered:

I saw the grays at the quilt store, and thought that would be prefect for shading. Thank you so much :)
